Hi there! 🌞 We're thrilled to welcome you to Agape Gardens, our 30-acre homestead nestled in the Gatineau Hills. Our property is more than just land; it's a dream we've nurtured and cultivated with love—a place to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with nature. We have several unique spots for staying, each with its own vibe: cozy bell tents, our minimalist A-frame cabin, and sites to bring your own tent or RV/camper. Whether you’re here for a solo retreat, a family getaway, or simply a break from the city, you'll be surrounded by the peace and calm of the land. We’re open year-round, and guests are invited to embrace the beauty of winter as well. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can experience the quiet magic of winter camping, with snowy forest views, crisp fresh air, and the warmth of our wood-fired sauna just steps away. For rest and relaxation, you can warm up in the sauna, cool off in the cold plunge, or try a venik session—a traditional sauna ritual with aromatic branches that feels incredible on the body (available in the extras section). On the property, you’ll find a pond to explore, trails to wander, wildflower gardens, chickens, and an edible garden. We’re passionate about conscious living and have designed our land using permaculture principles to create a thriving, edible landscape. We look forward to hosting you and sharing the magic of our land. Come, relax, explore, and reconnect with the simplicity of life—no matter the season.

4-Season Cliffside Camp

100%
(15)
61km from Burnt Lands Provincial Park · 1 site · Lodging · Denholm, QC
❄️ Cliffside Cabin at The Off Grid Ark — Cozy Winter Getaway in Western Quebec If you’ve ever dreamed of waking up to a quiet, snow-covered forest — this is your spot. Perched on a west-facing cliff at The Off Grid Ark, our rustic shelter is now fully winter-ready. A whisper-quiet diesel heater, mounted safely outside, keeps the cabin toasty warm all night while you sleep surrounded by nature. Outside, a propane deck heater makes it easy to enjoy coffee or dinner under the stars. We’ve also added a Cuisinart tabletop propane BBQ, which cooks faster and cleaner than the old jet grill — perfect for winter gloves and quick meals. We have snowshoes for rent and 10 km of groomed snowshoe trails winding through maple forest, ridges, and lakeshores — the same trails used for Canada’s longest-running snowshoe and trail race series, The Mad Trapper. I’m also hoping to cut a new backcountry ski loop this winter at the top of the escarpment for adventurous guests. The shelter includes a queen bed with fresh linens and a down duvet, plus space for tents around the firepit if you’d like a group setup. Kids and pets stay free, just leave it like you found it. The covered deck has handcrafted rocking chairs for lingering over sunsets, while your private fire area sits just below — perfect for roasting marshmallows or watching the stars. Hammocks are tucked into quiet corners for lazy afternoons or stargazing at night. We’re also building a new bunkhouse nearby for families and groups — another step toward making The Ark a year-round destination for outdoor education and adventure. There’s no electricity or running water, but you’ll have remote-control and desktop LED lights, a Jackery battery bank to keep devices charged, and a Bluetooth speaker for music or podcasts. A cooler, lanterns, jugs of clean well water, and a clean outhouse are provided. Wildlife is plentiful — deer, foxes, loons, and the occasional wolf howl in the distance. I’ll haul your gear by ATV, so bring what you need and settle in. Come unplug, warm up, and experience the stillness of winter at The Off Grid Ark — where comfort meets true off-grid adventure.
